Pendant luminaires are popular lighting choices for hospitality and commercial projects due to their versatile nature and non-obstructive design. These fixtures can be used to add task lighting – to enhance productivity – and accent lighting – to display or showcase architectural features. Spaces with tall ceilings, such as lobbies, shopping malls & plazas, staircases in museums, theatres, and hotels, benefit from the length of these modern luminaires to fill out the negative space and create a balanced look. They can also be a great addition to bars, restaurants, and lounges as they can add both lighting and décor to the space.
What is pendant lighting?

Pendant lighting is a type of hanging lighting fixture that is suspended from the ceiling by a cord or stem. It can be a single fixture or a collection of fixtures that are hung down from the ceiling and provide focused light to a specific area. Pendant lighting fixtures come in various shapes, sizes, styles, and finishes to better suit different environments. Pendant lighting can be used as task or accent lighting, depending on the placement and intentionality of the lights. For task lighting, LED pendant lights can be used as a clutter-free alternative to desk lights by providing working areas with illumination to enhance productivity. While for accent lighting, pendants can be used as “hanging spotlights” to add focal points inside any project, such as inside hotels, bars, restaurants, retail stores, and more.
Additionally, pendant lights can be used to create a focal point in a space or to provide ambient lighting. Different finishes on pendants have different impact on spaces; black anodized pendant light looks modern and chic, concrete looks neutral and industrial, and white oak looks organic and light. The finish can be used to make the pendant stand out or blend in with its environment – depends on the desired end result.

1. Cylindrical pendants
Cylindrical pendants are a fundamental shape that can be used in a myriad of ways to suit different projects. Though their shape is simple and straightforward, they shine best in clusters that bring some visual interest to a space. By arranging them in either symmetrical or asymmetrical configurations, these modern LED fixtures create a dynamic visual within the place. They’re best used to add accent lighting to hotel lobbies, restaurants, bars, and lounges. The thin beams of light can be directed to where they’re most needed while complementing the space’s aesthetics.
Pendant Systems are pre-arranged pendant clusters that include the canopy and fixtures. They’re made up of cylindrical pendants and have been carefully placed to fit a variety of spaces. The systems look best in projects with high ceilings to showcase the luminaires, such as staircases, lobbies, and reception areas in hotels, theatres, and museums.
Rectangular pendants feel more structured than cylindrical pendants due to their edges. These pendants are made in wood finishes only, which compliments the shape because it softens the look and creates an organic feel to the fixture. These wood pendants are best suited for bright open spaces that benefit from task lighting, such as restaurants, bars, cafes, and offices.
Spherical pendants have a very youthful, delicate and relaxed feel to them. These modern LED pendants are great for smaller or more intimate spaces as they provide great illumination and atmosphere when placed above tables, booths, and bar counters in restaurants, cafes, bars, and lounges. These acrylic pendants can also be installed as part of a cluster, creating a stunning centerpiece above longer tables or installed above staircases for a dreamy and luxurious effect.
Conical pendants are best used in smaller spaces that require wide light beams; these pendants are compact but can illuminate a wide area, making them great alternatives to desk lamps as they provide light without the clutter. These pendants are best suited for task lighting above office desks, restaurant and café tables, and educational spaces like libraries.
